Test Drive 1968 Chevrolet Chevelle Pro Street SOLD $31,900 Maple Motors

[@johnlutz6543]

I had that car built for me many years ago, I owned it for 29 years, whoever buys this car is getting a well built car, it's a 454 built with 625 hp, the baddest car I ever owned, I just wasn't driving it and it just sat around, I can tell you every nick on that car and how it happened, I just wanted someone to enjoy it and use it, you won't be disappointed with this car heck I may have to buy it back, it's everything you see here, bad as beast, 😪 I really do miss it, I actually gave the money to my kids because it would have been there inheritance, whoever buys you will love it, I took first place in the world of wheels in Pittsburgh 1999, it is a true custom pro street car, I really enjoyed the video with tears in my eyes😭😢

[@JamesWorley]

I see you sold the Chevelle. This video was suggested to me this morning and I recognized the car right away.

[@johnlutz6543]

@@JamesWorley yes sir, I sold that and the trans am a few months back, very sad day

[@RobertSiwik1968]

I thought this was your car John! You dont know me but I remember first seeing it at smarty arty's. Always wondered what happened to it. Have a good one!

[@Randy-lf2dp]

Damn sorry to hear that yeah hard to let go of something that you had for a long time... but they make some nice Corvettes an zl1 Camaro is out there

[@poindexter1387]

I sold my 1957 210 when I was 17 yrs old. I'm 64 now my heart is still broken.

[@charlestoole1789]

I am a Chevelle man just like you Nick and this car is absolutely beautiful. The set up on this car with the blown Big Block and the tire and wheel package just sets this car off, that is what defines a true muscle car. Great video Nick

[@doubledave7451]

Nick: At 20:25 the oil pressure shows 5 lbs when the motor's hot. I had this same problem with my first 454 as I was using 10W30 motor oil (didn't know better). Please let whomever buys this car know they need 15W40 oil. Joe Gibbs makes good stuff, I use it in my 496. Oil pressure usually goes down once the oil gets hot but 5 lbs means the oil's too thin to begin with for a BBC.

[@ErnieTheDachshund]

What car do you have?

[@phelanator5784]

The smile on your face Nick is priceless.

[@mindyolshefski4933]

The fun part would be driving it back to Nevada from there

[@eros9230]

Ghee! Just when I thought Nelson's race engines on his channel had all the Supercharged Hotrods; but then I saw this Chevelle, so loud and fast, and fierce!🤑

[@scopeventura]

Already have a DragRaceTool (Chevy S10), if not- this Chevelle would be the choice. Screams "Here I am", even when the engine is off! :)

[@BillFlick-n4i]

Much Better Color Combination, Love the cars you Get in

[@MapleMotorsNickSouthgate]

Glad you like them! Thank you

[@richardward7062]

I've been waiting for a ride along on this one. Enjoyed 😉

[@49inxs]

[@APA2345]

Wow, that pro-street sounds awesome.

[@Matt-vb2jo]

Saw this and got goose bumps y'all. This must be a bad mutha trucka. No better choice of wheels than drag stars.

[@jasondarling8427]

I think Mel Gibson would be proud! seriously though I like this in black or pearl white….just think, seeing this car with a beautiful pearl white with centerlines all the way around… Awesome 👏car and thank you for bringing us along for the ride!

[@jamesjohnson4093]

That thing is a MONSTER! Nice Chevelle!

[@Scalihoo]

My mom is turning 93 next month, I may get this one for her to impress the bingo crowd,

[@dorannwarnerr7661]

Prolly the fastest car I’ve seen on this channel

[@jenniferbeyer6412]

Very nice car. The ride along was fun.

[@quentinteague3472]

That car belongs on a drag strip!

[@johnnorman6022]

Now thats what I call a muscle car nice ride listen to.that dual exhaust wow

[@razorback1171]

That thing is tough. Plain and simple.

[@LITTLE1994]

Dude, this muscle car looks MEAN!

[@PaulRhodes420]

I'm drooling like a baby!!! Here's your replacement!! (for your Chevelle) This sexy beast would look awesome with me behind the steering wheel!!! 🚗💨💨💨💨💨

[@scottwright388]

I have a birthday coming soon incase any of my relatives are here...that paint job is sweet.

[@erniethedachshundshorts]

That thing is a BEAST!!!

[@sethjohnsonoutdoors4055]

So cool to see the engine 😎

[@garycordle5295]

Very nice car, just don't push any buttons you don't know what it's going to,you might be either going to the future or going back to the future 🤣

[@awildslapnuts513]

Won't have to worry about getting to 88 mph in that

[@Jhandy2745]

Found your channel through TikTok been going through and watching all your videos love the blower cars. Hope to visit that location soon and see the lot

[@MapleMotorsNickSouthgate]

Thank you

[@jonathanjohnson5750]

Been waiting for this video. Would love to have that in my yard.

[@tonyt8805]

Early mid 90's build. 😉😎😉

[@danmyers9372]

That definite is a home made roll cage. Guessing it was the builders first ever roll cage. Doubt it would pass tech anywhere.

[@harrybalsak3508]

HOLY SHIT THAT'S A FAST CHEVELLE!!

[@billbranch1403]

Love that car bro!! That’s the one. If I had 31k that joker would be in my garage asbwebsoeek

[@stevedixon9409]

Get some fresh coerect oil in it before it let's go !

[@roydishman351]

That is a very good Looking car Man thank you for sharing this with me You All do a Wonderful job on your cars from Roy Keep them Coming Besafe an Well an Rock on Have All good days an nites 👍💪🙏

[@richardward7062]

I had that same type of engine bore .120 over in a 67 camaro LS7 heads 1050 holley. 9 second car!

[@engineer909]

My nephew has a 70 496 Chevelle with a 1050 carb, 3 barrel. It’s a monster! 550 hp, carry ya down the road 👍

[@danmyers9372]

I would lay down $100 that this car couldn’t break 10.0.

[@engineer909]

You might be correct, but it sounds great. The Tesla Plaid will smash everything under a thousand HP. I’d still take an old big block, if only for the sound.! Lol

[@turbosammy6085]

AWESOME!!!! PURE AMERICAN MUSCLE!!!!

[@marvinhecox8289]

Tough 1 love this 68

[@ErnieTheDachshund]

This thing is a beast!

[@tombankwel4822]

[@hotwheel6663]

Blower Chevelle at Maple Motors! Forgot the horn though 😮

This is a very nice pro streetcar.

[@jimcrowell5093]

Yo Nick hi from here in the D Michigan and Thanks so much for sharing this 68chevelle what is my favorite all time favorite car ,this 68 looking Awesome & well done ☝️🐴🤩😍😁😎😇🥂

[@keithoneil6711]

It’s got the power Nick wow love to have a drive mate

[@lagerbeer1974]

This is a bona-fide race car. You can forget about making this street legal. Love it nonetheless.

[@cuzz63]

street legal means different things in different states

[@danmyers9372]

Nah, it’s a poser. Blown big block with a stock oil pan? Oil pressure is low indicating it’s likely a stock oil pump. Not a real race engine. Mild big block with a polished blower. Rear suspension is circa 1970’s-80’s which is likely when the car was built. Roll cage is home built and won’t pass tech at any race track.

[@tommilitello198]

Have you ever went to a car show? There’s not much you can’t run and I’d bet you money that car is street legal ,it’s a street car

[@tjracing3243]

Man.... that really sweet.

[@johnryan1798]

I can see that car is beyond blue. Too hot for that!!

[@peggypatton9170]

I get in trouble with this love it

[@snowman8235]

[@chadrichardson411]

Y’all always have bad ass cars.. one day I’m gonna come see y’all.. keep up the good work and keep posting these bad ass videos

[@ljevans5993]

So, with so many things not working on that rocket car, it’s safe to say that at least it runs and drives !

[@markbagenski3884]

Yes please

[@tonytilleman7137]

[@65JD5010]

[@vincegedeon6583]

[@malikdigger4544]

My kind of street/pro 68 Chevelle some people say by them when their already complete 5:31 probably scare any exotic car silly & definitely would wake up ba neighborhood even on Sundays I drive that too if only I had $31k tho.

[@dennisjones1642]

[@ccg1171]

@ Trump 2024 knucklehead

[@albertdeleon6232]

I love your videos and honesty but why didn't you mention anything about the roll cage? It's for show and will never pass inspection at any track unless you pay someone or work there.

[@jeffreymccommon8759]

you forgot the horn...

[@jeffreymccommon8759]

vroom vroom...beep beep!

[@richki.24]

Love it ...

[@CorkyCola]

I don't care if it's fast or not, it's bada$$!!

[@tomschweikert9537]

a fuel pressure guage inside the cabin???

[@johnpirie2583]

I will bet she is a thirsty ride ! I’m wondering if it would be street legal here in Alberta Canada 🇨🇦

[@riadshehadeh6687]

Did the horn work 🤣

[@mcbainhvac]

👍

[@nunyabizznizz7326]

notfor me, but he has way more than 30k invested......good deal

[@jonathansheeder5153]

That seems like a lot of car for the money.

[@Hogiewan1]

Awesome buddy, awesome.

Horsepower numbers would be great.
